AS showing the depths Of degrada-
tion to which the human family may
fall, we quote the following dispatch
from Columbia, South Carolina, con-
cerning Stephen Bailey, recently az
rested near that place;
Il have been married three times.
| killed my first wife with a club. Her
name was Catherine. I buried her in
the garden. and after while it was
found out, and the people dug her up
and buried her in the graveyard. She
had six children for me. Ny second
wife's name was Mary. I killed her
with brick by hitting her in the head.
[ will not tell what I did with her
body. She had one child, a boy, His
name is Sahey ] don't know where
he is My third wife's name was Sal
lie. She was unfaithful to me for a
long time. My wife and | had not
been on good terms for three or four
weeks. That day | laid in wait FOR
her in a footpath, and as she came
along I hit her on the head with an
axe and killed her, and dragged her
into the bushes until that night.
Then sent my boy to the yard for a
wheelbarrow, and when he came I sent
him back to the house. Then / put
the body into the wheelbarrow and
carried it about a mile, and put it in
the furnace. At sunrise | started the
fire, and about s or 9 o'clock it was
found out. Sallie had seven children" "
We also take following from the
report Of prize-fght at Nashua, New
Hampshire:
John Donohue Of Boston, aud Jas.
Curley Of Nashua, fougt fifteen rounds
to finish with bare knuckles this
morning. in barn just over the Mas
sachusetts line. Curley had the best
of the fight for ten rounds. after which
Donohue assumed the offensive, and
in the fifteenth round knocked Curley
out hy blow under the chin. Dur
ing the last three rounds neither man
could see the other, their eyes being
closed. Qonohue's nose was broken in
the thirteenth round"

as having all been spoken at the same dis

spoken in connection with the other parallels,

the last lesson. The explanations were given
afterward to the apostles privately.

JACKSON OHIO. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1887

tary, Treasurer and Attorney General
of the State After much prodding
the Dispatch, which has championed
the distorted returns, thus uninten-
tionally explains how the result was
reached
"The Board of Canvassers did pass
upon what is denominated the popu-
lar VOTE Their duty was done when
they ascertained who, according to the
returns. were elected to the two houses.
The compilation and footings above
were made by the Dispatch, and to as
certain the Democratic vote the high
est vote cast in city or County for a
Democratic candidate for the House
was taken. The Republican vote, SIM
ilarly, is the vote Of the highest Re
publican candidate. No note is taken
of the scattering vote. 1t was con-
siderable-two thousand probably
but appears to have been drawn equally
from the two parties. In few coun-
ties the vote cast for Independent re-
publican will be found in the Demo-
cratic column"
The last sentence tells the whole
story. The apparent Democratic ma
iority of 426 was manufactured by
CHASING all independent Republican
votes, which, by the way, were un-
questionably Republican, as Demo-
cratic, and by this method destroying
a Republican vote of several thousand
and appropriating it to swell the Dem
ocratic column.
In one case a Republican Senator,
named Causey, who had just served a
term as Republican, ran as an inde-
pendent, and received LILO votes.
These were wholly Republican, and
yet this Board Of Canvassers added
them to the Democratic column.
Another Republican vote Of 563,
cast for Republican in Norfolk, and
still another of 1921, in Scott County,
all Republican votes, cast for indepen-
dent candidates, were found in the
Democratic column. BY this false, if
not fraudulent classification, the Board
Of Canvassers was able to show Dem
ocratic majority on the vote by cities
and counties of 1926. This is the best
that could be done for Virginia Dem
ocracy, even by such methods and by
a Board which was willing to do any
thing that could be done after the Of
fetal returns had actually been filed.
The Dispatch admits that the Re-
publicans cast 119,380 votes, and
claims total Democratic vote of 49,
$685. Taking the 1854 independent
Republican votes (which the Board
coolly appropriated for the Democ-
racy) from the Democratic total,
and adding to the admitted Republican
vote, where it belongs, and the cor
rected vote stands: Republican vote,
1884; Democratic vote, 1852;
Republican majority in Virginia on
the popular vote, 5,482.

sitting of the talesmen for the materials to
make good jury; and a weary time they
have had of it.
The five attorneys for the defense attract
the most attention. Judge Fullerton has
national reputation for the important cases
in which he las acted. Judge Nelson was in
the state senate when the new code was
adopted, and is master of the details in which
it differs from the former statutes and com
mon law. Lewis Cass Ledyard is expected
to argue the great point as to whether defend
ants admissions before the legislative coE..
mittee can be put in evidence against him
Messrs. Parsons and Stickney are the remain
ing regular attorneys for the defense, but two
others are consulted occasionally. The legal
battle will be well worth going many miles
to hear.
Jacob Sharp himself the defendant is
curiosity. In any other place than that he
daily occupies he would be voted a good
natured, round faced, slightly sleepy and
low old gentleman--one who might serve as
Hartman of Sunday school gathering, and
at good little boys on the head with a
,therly admonition Yet the prosecutors

The trial of Jacob Sharp, now in progress
in New York, excites intense interest among
all classes of this much "beboodled" CITY.
A short study of tie scene in the court

the present trial, ordering all their words and

before the court of appeals. On the

Sore Ewes

The eyes are always in sympathy with
the body, and afford an excellent index
OF its condition. When the eyes become
weak, and the lids innamed and sore, it
Is an evidence that the system has
become disordered by Scrofula, for
which Ayers Sarsaparilla is the best
known remedy.
Scrofnla, which produced painful in
flalnmation in my eyes, caused me much
suffering for number of years. By the
advice of a physician l commenced taking
Ayers Sarsaparilla. After using this
medicine short time was completely
Cured ...
My eyes are now in splendid condi-
ton, and am as We'll and strong as ever.
Mrs. William Gage, Concord, II. II.
For a number of years was troubled
with humor in my eyes, and was unable
to obtain any relief until / commenced
using Ayers Sarsaparilla. This medi-
cine has effected a complete cure, and
believe it to be the best of blood puri-
fcrs. &C. Il. Upton, Nashua, n. II.
From Childhood, and until with few
months, have been afflicted with Weak
and Sore Eyes. l have used for these
complaints, with beneficial results,
Ayers Sarsaparlla, and consider it a
great blood purifier. - Mrs. c. Phillips,
Glover, VT.
I suffered for year with inflamma-
tiGn in my left eye. Three ulcers formed
on the ball, dcpriving me of sight, and
causing great pain. After trying many
other remedies, to no purpose, was final
" induced to use Ayers Sarsaparilla.
BY Taking
three bottles of this medicine I have been
entirely cured. My sight has been re-
stored, and there is no sign of infiamma-
ton sore, or ulcer in my eye Kendall

My daughter, ten years old, was af11ict-
ed with ScrofuloEs Sore Eyes. During
the last two years she never saw light Of
any kind. Physicians of the highest
standing excrted their skill, but with no
permanent success. On the recommen-
dation OF friend purchased bottle of
Ayers Sarsaparilla, which my daughter
commenced taking. Before she had used
the third bottle her Sight was restored.
Her cure is complete. w E. Suther-
